I will try when I get home later today - it will be ~10 hours from now.
The display I see on the monitor after the hand-over complete is
a few coloumns of duplicated text.
As my primitive root filesystem halts I cannot produce any output.
When I enter the prom console I continue to see the same text
in the background.
If it is on any help I can try to take a picture.
